Trying to Hide

Posted by Eric Fry (Houston, TX, United States) on 31 August 2008 in Animal & Insect and Portfolio.

This small butterfly (less than 3/4 inch wingspan) hides on the underside of leaves. I followed him through the yard and then turned over the vine he was hiding on. The transparent spots on the wings are particularly interesting to me.

Thanks for visiting, and I hope you all have a great day,
Eric
